Can I renew my Non O visa without 400k baht if I have a newborn?

Good afternoon!

I am currently on a Non O visa which will need renewal soon! Is it possible to extend without the 400k baht in the bank account if I have a new born baby now? Or the requirements are still the same?

Thank you in advance!

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is inquiring about the possibility of renewing their Non O visa without having the required 400,000 baht in a bank account, now that they have a newborn. Comments indicate that the financial requirements remain the same, particularly for extensions related to marriage to a Thai national or support for a Thai child. Alternatives such as a 60-day Visit Thai Family Extension are mentioned, which do not have financial requirements. It is advised to consult local immigration for specific circumstances.

Support of Thai child is the same process as the marriage option, plus the childs birth certificate, blue book and ID if they have. The financials should be 400kthb in the bank the day of the extension submission, no seasoning, but its worth checking with your immigration, to be sure.

You can get the 60 day Visit Thai Family Extension if you haven't yet used it which does not have financial requirements and will allow your 400k to season

What was the reason for the Non O? If it was marriage to a Thai national then the first extension has to be for the same reason. 400k in a Thai bank.

Actually it’s the same amount if you want to change the next year for having a Thai child.

Visit your local immigration to ask about the requirements to do so.
